Night falls.
This is a remote and desolate grove.
Through the sparse trees, you can see the dim lights of Savia Castle 3 miles away.
The two wizards with Fabres family badges on their chests stared ferociously at the distant castle, and the leader said viciously: "This is here... Savia Castle, the Earl Thomas inside has clearly rejected us. Therefore, the family ordered that these ignorant guys must be cleaned up today. Remember, no one will be left alive, all people and livestock in the castle must be destroyed, and all the spoils will belong to you... "
Hearing the wizard's lecture, all the eleven apprentice wizards following behind them showed joy on their faces, while the more than fifty black-armored guards who obeyed orders from farther away erupted in slight cheers.
"Okay, let's go!"
Following the wizard's order, eleven apprentice wizards rushed out of the woods with more than fifty black-armored guards, and quickly rushed straight to the gray castle standing in the darkness.
They had already investigated before they came. There were only two wizard apprentices in Earl Thomas's castle, one intermediate and one advanced. They were not considered strong characters.
Among the quest chips issued by the Fabres family, the head of Earl Thomas was worth 200 magic crystals, and the heads of the two crimson apprentices were worth 50 magic crystals and the other 100 magic crystals. As for other high-ranking members of the family, most of them are between 5-10 magic crystals.
The two official wizards who led the team might not like these "little money", but the group of wizard apprentices they brought had their eyes reddened by the magic crystal, and rushed to the killing field one by one.
Although it was already dark, the outer walls of the ancient castle were still heavily guarded. Guards patrolled the road with torches in their hands, looking fierce and in danger.
Savia Castle is just an ordinary secular territory of the Crimson Family in the Elovis area, and Earl Thomas, who manages this castle and the surrounding 120-mile radius, is only one of the many secular dignitaries of the Crimson Clan, and he is also The most unremarkable one.
However, as the surrounding secular dignitaries feared the power of the Fabres family and chose to defect one by one, Earl Thomas, who resolutely drove away the envoy of the other side, seemed so eye-catching and abrupt.
It can be said that from the moment when the other party's messenger was driven away, there was a panic all over Savia Castle, and everyone was waiting for an unknown disaster to strike at a certain moment.
If it weren't for the granddaughter who studied in the White Tower in the Northland, Earl Thomas might not have had such great courage to fight against an old wizard family. Little Winnie is very talented, and she is already a senior apprentice at the age of 11.
If nothing else, it's pretty safe for little Winnie to become a full-fledged wizard before she turns 30.
And once little Winnie became an official wizard of the Crimson family, the entire Thomas family would have a great opportunity to rise. It was because of this bond that Earl Thomas mustered up the courage to drive away the envoy who came to recruit him.
Perhaps knowing that disaster was inevitable, Earl Thomas sent his most promising son (little Winnie's biological father) and several talented grandchildren to the small town of Songtao after driving away the messenger.
That is the place of origin of the Crimson Clan, so it shouldn't be directly impacted by this war.
As for himself, he has prepared himself for the worst and waited for the terrible disaster to come. His idea was very simple, he hoped that the Crimson family could treat little Winnie and the rest of the family well for the sake of his 'loyalty to death'.
In this way, when little Winnie makes her fortune in the future, the seeds left by the Thomas family can continue to rely on her to grow rapidly!
When the alarm bells on the city wall rang, Earl Thomas, who was hiding in the bedroom alone, closed his eyes in pain.
He is over 80 years old this year, his time is running out, and there is only so much he can do for his family.
Other secular nobles may not be optimistic about the future of the Crimson family, and have become a fool on the wall, falling to the powerful side with the wind. But Earl Thomas always had a strange feeling that the Crimson Clan would still win the final victory like the last Wizard Clan War.
Once the Crimson Family wins, the nobles who choose to join the enemy at this moment will definitely usher in a bloody cleanup.
Flowers watered by blood will grow stronger and more colorful!
In the last wizarding family war, Earl Thomas stood in the right position, thus climbing from a small Baron Thomas to the position of Earl. But what he didn't expect was that after more than ten years, the second choice came to him so quickly.
The scale of the war this time is larger, and the enemies of the Crimson Family are also more terrifying, so the choice becomes more and more difficult. Fortunately, little Winnie was there, which saved Thomas from the problem of strenuous choice.
He is old and can no longer continue to lead the Thomas family, so it is time for him to sacrifice himself to strive for greater development space for the family!
Earl Thomas stood up tremblingly from the sofa, took a sip of the red wine in the glass, and staggered towards the big bed. In his hand, a golden dagger covered with patterns and with a huge ruby inlaid on the handle gleamed coldly.
Now that the enemy has come, it is time for him to die!
He didn't want to fall into the enemy's hands and suffer torture, so it's better to kill himself early.
However, just as he walked to the bed, there was a light knock on the wooden door of the bedroom.
"Lantes, don't come to persuade me anymore, I won't go with you! Before the enemy invades the castle, you should run away quickly! The secret road in the stable in the backyard can allow you to escape safely from the ancient castle. Fort…”
Lantes was one of the two crimson apprentices hired by Earl Thomas at a high price, and he had repeatedly persuaded the Earl to flee back to the small town of Pine Tower with them. Unfortunately, Earl Thomas hesitated again and again, but still refused. Therefore, when the knock on the door sounded again, Thomas instinctively thought that it was the senior apprentice Lantes.
The wooden door opened silently.
A tall and sinister figure stood at the door, and the bright light behind him shone in, casting a golden halo on the edges of his silhouette.
This is not Lantes!
Thomas's heart was pounding, he took a few steps back in fear, and said in a trembling voice, "You... you... who are you..."
The tall black figure ignored Earl Thomas' question at all, walked to the window, and looked through the narrow wooden window at the black-armored warriors rushing up the city like a tide. The strange face hidden in the shadow of the hood revealed a strange Smile.
And behind the tall black figure, the senior apprentice Lantes, who was carrying a windproof gas lamp, also walked in and smiled at Earl Thomas.
"Okay, Lord Earl, don't just seek death. This is the wizard sent by our family to pick you up to the small town of Songta. Hurry up and go with me, there is still a long way to go!"
If he could not die, who would be willing to bury his life in vain.
Under the persuasion of the apprentice Lantes, Earl Thomas hurriedly put away the dagger, not caring about carrying more wealth and treasures, and called out a few of his closest concubines and servants. The black carriage drove towards the distance amidst the rumbling noise.
Although the black carriage was not so conspicuous in the night, it was impossible to hide the wizard apprentices and black-armored guards who were attacking the Fabres family. But unexpectedly, as soon as anyone approached the black carriage fifty steps away, they would be cut off by a sharp blade in the middle without a sound, and beheaded on the spot.
From the moment Earl Thomas and the others tremblingly boarded the carriage to the time the black carriage dangled into the darkness, 8 black-armored guards and 2 wizard apprentices had already died at the hands of that mysterious killer.
And everything that happened here was of course discovered by the eyes of witch power inspired by the wizard leading the team.
So, above the dark night sky, an invisible eye of witch power slowly moved to the back of the castle, secretly scanning everything here.
And in the earl's bedroom on the third floor of the castle, the tall black figure was still looking out of the window, silently watching the 'death battle' between the black-armored guards and the castle guards. The castle guards are brave warriors. Although they have metal stomachs and sharp swords, they are still difficult to parry when encountering wizard guards wearing enchanted armor.
Just when the black-armored guards rushed into the castle and started killing, Lantes, the senior apprentice who sent the earl away, returned to the room, came behind the shadow and bowed to salute: "My lord, the castle has been cleaned up." , those who should be sent away have already been sent away!"
"Okay... very good... then let my little ones have a good meal again!"
Following the cold hiss of the tall black figure, countless black beetles fell out of the black burqa like dumplings. These black beetles flooded the ground like a tide and rushed out of the bedroom. When passing by the apprentice, they were automatically separated to the two sides and did not get him involved.
Even though he knew that these strange beetles were all controlled by Lord Billis, it was impossible to accidentally injure himself. However, when the tide-like dense swarm of insects passed by within his reach, apprentice Lantes still couldn't help but raised his heart in his throat.
Gritting his teeth, and exhausting all his strength, Lantes let himself scream without impoliteness.
The fighting outside only lasted for a moment before it quieted down, which also indicated that the guards and servants left in the castle had all been slaughtered. The black-armored guards and wizard apprentices who were searching the castle from door to door soon encountered the swarming black beetles.
The sharp wind of waving swords, the crackling and crisp sound of burning torches, and the huge roar of bursting elemental fireballs... soon sounded from every corner of the castle.
The sound of frantic fighting and screams can be heard endlessly.
However, the black-armored guards who were hunters just now became prey in the eyes of others.
The shrill screams rang out one after another, but soon fell silent, leaving only the strange gnawing sounds of chirping in the darkness that made teeth ache and legs go limp.
"Damn it, it's Billys the Worm Witch..."
In the grove, the faces of the two formal wizards of the Fabres family sank, and their hearts couldn't help beating wildly.
The Crimson Family Bug Witch was even more terrifying than the legendary Fire Witch.
Although the legendary fire witch was powerful, he only made a few shots in front of everyone. It was far inferior to this insect witch who killed all directions with more cruel methods and bloody scenes.
And, more importantly, the worm witch Billis can be regarded as the core wizard in the Crimson family.
Met him, although the mission obviously failed, but as long as he reported his tracks, it was still a great credit!
At the moment when the two wizards looked at each other and were about to turn around and flee, the scene in front of them suddenly changed, and two huge heads rolled and flew into the air...
